On the night of May 14-15, 2026, Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces struck a Russian airfield at Yeysk on the Sea of Azov and erased one of the rarest aircraft in Russian naval service: a Beriev Be-200 amphibious jet, with a Ka-27 naval helicopter hit alongside it. This breakdown reconstructs how several Fire Point FP-2 strike drones reached a target at the very edge of its range, flown in real time over a satellite relay link Russian jammers could not touch. We cover the launch under fire, the FPV escort that cleared the corridor, the electronic-warfare duel over the one radio link Russia could actually reach, the Igla ambush that cost the formation a drone, and the split-second timing that put the airfield’s Tor-M2DT out of action moments before the warhead went into the Be-200. No politics, just tactics, technology, and execution.
